Trump Leaves ICE Out In The Cold During The State Of The Union

from Make It Make Sense with Grant Hermes · host Grant Hermes

During his State of the Union address on Tuesday night, President Donald Trump made his usual sweeping statements, false claims, and insults at Democrats. But in what was a very long (1 hr and 47min!) speech, he left two key things out. In fact, they were two of his signature policy agendas for the year. ICE deployments and the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Grant breaks down why it's interesting that those were left on the cutting room floor, why they might have been cut in the first place, and what that means for Republicans staring down the barrel of some very bad midterm prediction numbers. PROMO CODES: MANTRA MATCHAIf coffee makes you alert and deeply unwell, it might be time to switch it up.Mantra Matcha offers ceremonial-grade matcha sourced from a private hillside farm in Uji, Japan.
